Project 17-4850
Streets affected: King Street Culvert Replacement in Terra Cotta, Town of Caledon
We have finished the work. The project is under warranty until November, 2025.
Project update
- October 20, 2023 – King Street in Terra Cotta is now open
- October 11, 2023 – King Street has been rescheduled to open on October 20, 2023 as a result of unforeseen delays.
- September 27, 2023: Road closure on King Street will open during the week of October 9, 2023.
Where is the work happening
King Street Culvert over Credit River Tributary is located 100 meters west of north leg of Winston Churchill Boulevard in Terra Cotta. View attached map.
Why the King Street culvert needs replacement
The recommendation to replace this culvert is a result of extensive assessment of this structure, to alleviate existing structural concerns, address safety concerns related to water flow and possible flooding, expand fish passage, and improve the existing road conditions for all road users by widening of shoulders.
Construction schedule
We expect construction to begin in June 2023 and to complete this project by the end of October, 2023.
Traffic impacts
A full road closure will be required to replace the King Street culvert. This temporary road closure is expected to take place from June 2023 until the end of September 2023 (weather permitting). During this time, detours will be clearly marked with road signs.
Why a full road closure is required
A full closure of the King Street bridge at Humber Lea Road will be required for the following reasons:
- There is not enough space to demolish and rebuild the culvert while leaving any part of the existing culvert open.
- To protect the environment, the in-water works are only permitted at certain times of year, as per Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks regulations (June 15-September 15 in the case of the Credit River Tributary).
- The temporary road closure will provide the best safety protection to drivers, pedestrians, cyclists, and construction workers.
